Pride and punishment
In the spirit of making the rules up as we go, I'm taking E.J.'s suggestion for how we can institute "negative pride" in the scoring system. NFL games are still worth 2 pride points each, but if you go 0-4, 5 pride points will be subtracted, your pride will shrink, you will feel shame, and then you go free.
This week's NFL games:
BALTIMORE -3 Cincinnati
NEW ENGLAND -3 Indianapolis
New Orleans -1 TAMPA BAY
PITTSBURGH –2.5 Denver
Big Thunder goes with Baltimore, Indy, New Orleans, and Denver.
EJ picks Cincy, New England, Tampa, and Pittsburgh.
And Budds takes all the ‘dogs -- Cincy, Indy, Tampa and Denver.

BT -- how is it we can agree on a 20-point dog three weeks in a row but not on one NFL pick.
Grille - It's gotta make it a lot tougher to take the Broncos when you write Plummer (unless, of course, Steelers fan you are, you're doing a reverse jinx thing here).

I just noted that same thing, EJ. With us separated by just 1 pride point, there is going to be a major pride swing (unless, of course, we each go 2-2, which should be expected). This week will go a long way toward settling ... well, nothing. Nothing at all.
